i'm sure it will be, at some point. but "allot" is already also a word. and i just like to see that little space in the text. "a lot" looks better than "alot." idk why

English already has so many words for it compared to other languages, do we really need another?

It is strange when people have clearly treated it as a word for decades but people still object, while numerous other compounded words have been accepted
Just pedantry
